The Australian Emeralds have completed their #WomensBaseball World Cup in Florida with a third-straight win this morning.

Australia scored six early runs and rode a strong start by Sinead Flanigan to a 7-1 victory over Korea in their consolation game.

The Emeralds finished 5-0 against consolation group teams, sealing a seventh-place finish.

Australia opened the scoring in the second on an Elodie O’Sullivan single and added to its lead on a wild pitch and Leslie Anglin sacrifice fly.

The Emeralds piled on another three runs in the bottom of the third to make it 6-0.

On the mound, Flanigan worked four solid innings.

She allowed one unearned run on three hits before Amy Collins and Maddison Tabrett combined to throw three scoreless frames in relief.

O’Sullivan finished with two RBIs on a pair of hits.

 Anglin also drove in two runs in the win.

Chinese Taipei will play Japan in tomorrow's final.
